Ashley Brichter is a life-long educator, birth worker, consultant, and entrepreneur. In addition to improving maternal health, she is a champion for systemic reforms to improve the lives of families by rebalancing the division of labor at home and funding parental leave, universal health care, and progressive early childhood education. Despite her experience with hundreds of families as a doula, lactation counselor, and birth educator – like so many, her first birth did not “go as planned.” Better for it, she founded Birthsmarter in 2019, which provides unbiased, inclusive, and award-winning practical wisdom and guidance to the next generation of families. Ashley was born and raised in New York City, is a proud Bi-Co graduate, and currently lives in Salt Lake City where she has learned to love camping with her husband and two amazing kids. She is a Certified Fair Play Facilitator, a Tory Burch Fellow, and she sits on the board of ProNatal Fitness.

Margery Segal LPC, RSMT, IDME, PPN is the founder of the Whole Movement Center PLLC located in Austin, Texas. She has spent the last 20 years teaching her embodied approach to pre/perinatal psychology and somatic attachment and bonding in Brasil, Australia, Canada and Texas. She works with individuals, families, couples, infants, children, and people of all ages on early developmental attachment trauma and the art of creating fulfilling relationships. She integrates Dance & Theater, Body-Mind Centering®, Somatic Experiencing, Developmental Movement, and Prenatal Birth Attachment Therapy into experiential sessions and workshops. Her workshops provide a fun therapeutic experiential approach to a depth of neurobiological and body-mind concepts that help students transform and grow. She currently is enrolling women in Her year-long Whole Movement Embodiment Body Recovery Program. This is an online group program (with an in-person intensive) for women who are seeking to recover from a major transition such as caretaking, illness, aging or loss, or any major life change that has affected their relationship with their body. I invite participants who want to commit to learning a somatic movement and therapeutic approach to recovering a new sense of self, while becoming re-embodied and personally empowered as they move forward in their lives.
